Book description
Photoshop Elements is geared for business users, students,
educators, and home users who want professional-looking images for
their print and Web projects, but don't want or need the advanced
power of Adobe Photoshop. With Photoshop Elements 5 for Windows:
Visual QuickStart Guide, readers can start reading from the
beginning of the book to get a tour of the interface and start with
image-editing basics, or they can look up specific tasks to learn
just what they need to know. This task-based, visual reference
guide uses step-by-step instructions and plenty of screenshots to
show readers how to capture photos from traditional or digital
cameras, reduce red eye, correct color, work with layers, erase
backgrounds, create photo-illustrations and Web graphics, simulate
painting and drawing techniques, apply artistic effects, and
more.
Newly updated to cover Photoshop Elements 5, it details the hottest
new features: new advanced color and lighting controls, new
customizable layouts, Flash-based web photo galleries, the new
Flipbook feature, which lets you string together a series of still
photos to create an eye-catching and fun flipbook, and the ability
to download and edit photos directly from your mobile phone or
handheld device. Both beginning and advanced users will find what
they need here--in straightforward language and with readily
accessible examples.
